So I've been steadily increasing my whitelist every time some act of awesomeness or uber-ratio catches my eye, and it's now big enough to definitely merit an official event.

Unfortunately, I don't really have any money... However, I've noticed lots of people on the site seem to really like HOGs, and that's something I can actually afford!

So, here are 4 HOG GAs for all my lovely whitelistees. You guys deserve something much more impressive (and I'm sure I'll get to that eventually...) but for the time being this is the best I can do!

Fairy Tale Mysteries: The Puppet Thief
Hidden Object 6-in-1 bundle
House of Snark 6-in-1 Bundle
Witch's Pranks: Frog's Fortune Collector's Edition

Good luck, and thanks for helping to make SG a great community to be a part of!

If you can't enter, would like to, and have contributed a significant amount to the site, call me a magnificent bastard below and I'll check if I can let you in...

Are you a fan of the HOGs?

Yes, so I already have plenty of good ones, thanks!
Yes, so I want MOAR!
No, they're garbage, I like real games.
Obligatory potato (AKA "Meh").

Thanks for the generosity and the whitelist, but I already have all of them :P

I don't have any on my account. But I like puzzles once in a while to pass the time, so I guess this would be okay for me to try.

Can I try to get some of those you magnificent bastard below?

Anyway, have a Bump for the awareness of HOG's

You're on the right track, but your ratio isn't really at the kind of level I usually give recognition through whitelisting... But you made me chuckle, dang it, so come on in!

Yes! HOGs! HOGs are always great for casual gaming and laughing at ridiculous item uses or inconsistancies.

I was pleasantly surprised to find myself already on your pristine list! Thank you! (^w^)

How can you say that?! Pigs are wonderful animals! They have exceptional intelligence and strong individual personalities.
And, yanno, BACON! GAMMON! PORKCHOPS!! SAUSAGES!! BLACK PUDDING!!! ROASTED BOAR!!!

take this advice from me: stay away from pigs and don't eat their meat. the reason maybe a joke for you but it's been said in Islam that pig's meat effects your mind and makes U nerveless(no offence). I'm sure if I do some deep research U will understand!

Not interested in any, but just curious; would you consider my ratio as a "significant amount?" :p

Click a GA and find out... :)

Also, it's not really just based on ratio, if I see decent, interesting games that means just as much to me...

Ran across the last one because it was in my wishlist. Not sure how it got there as I've not played any of this type. I sorta remember it being recommended by several people here when I was solving one of the puzzle or contests posts. Thats the most likley thing anyhow. With that in mind I've entered the other GAs above. If I win, I guess I'll see if I like this type of game. Thanks.

May I know are you using some tools to make this assessment?

First and foremost the SGTools Real CV sent and won. Your ratio is by no means bad, but to get on the whitelist I'm normally looking for at least 2:1, or thereabouts.

But, the quality of a user isn't really so black and white as that, so I also look at their giveaways list for interesting, unusual, quality games.

There's actually a few games which are so high on my wanted list, and so rarely appear on here, that a user can immediately get a WL from posting a gib, completely regardless of their ratio. For example, if I see Stellaris, that gifter is immediately on my WL.

And, users who are frequently posting events and competitions can also get on my WL without really considering their ratio. The effort they put into creating those kinds of things is enough alone to deserve a spot.

I see. I'm working on to have those kinds of rare gibs too but not ATM :)

Yeah, when I said not there yet I really meant it, I fully expect to add you to the WL soon enough!

Also, it's worth bearing in mind that I'm not even talking exclusively about expensive games - they can be bargains, but if it's something I rarely see which has high user ratings that makes a really good impression on me :)
